If the human being is intentionality, and violence is going against that intentionality, then, nonviolence is to contribute to the enhancement of that intentionality. To put it simply, if his transformation is hindered by suffering and his basic project is the overcoming of this pain, this suffering – then, helping him to alleviate his pain, his suffering, is nonviolence. Helping him in his transformation, then, is the greatest nonviolence act one can do for another – the most valid of all actions!
If you take this as your reality, as your mission, then nothing can detain you from your destiny, and you would have opened the other's future, his own destiny.

Every year, on your child's birthday, write them a letter telling them what you love about them, what they are like, what they enjoy doing, where they have been in the past year, offer some good advice etc. Add a few photos of them taken during the year. Let them keep the letters safe and then when they are older they will have a record of their childhood. When you are no longer around, they will always know how much you loved them.

It is one thing to make it to the top of a mountain and shout to the world, "Look at me, and all that I have achieved", but it is another to take a deep breath and a good look around you, just before you offer your hand to the person struggling to make it up behind you.

If you are an open human being, you are bound to let the good and the bad in at some point in your life because it reflects the complexity and the yin and yang nature of not just your life, but all lives. As you pursue your dreams and destiny, life can truly surprise you with the good and bad, but it is up to you to make those thing something that can fuel you, something that will strengthen or break you so you can rise up and be all you were intended to be. Remember that others only see bits and pieces of your external world and even smaller pieces of your internal world- they see almost like a listing of your qualities- no one and I'm afraid not even yourself can see your totality. But with a lot of hard work, meditation and self reflection you can get closer to that vision of that ever changing totality of yourself, but never of others. Go from what you believe yourself to be and what you want yourself to be, and even despite what many others might believe you to be from their very inaccurate and incomplete picture of you and from their very inaccurate picture about the complexity and the magnanimity of life. Learn to love them, but also learn to shut them out when it doesn't help you to be a better person. When someone has an opinion of you, ask yourself- will this information help me to be the person I want to be? If the answer is no, then turn down the volume on that channel. Never hold anything negative about someone in your heart for too long without confronting them about it so you can give them a chance to clarify or give them a chance to surprise you or simply just let it go. Negative feelings and energy are dead weight, the less you have of the dead weight the easier it is to soar. And baby, believe me, you want to fly!

What Jonnansical writes: "I never knew how true love is possible, untill someone finally showed me how ..." It is important to love with a pure & true heart - that is what unconditional love do to others."
These are empty words from a woman who uses words but cannot live up to them. People who say one thing but do another are really imposters and frauds hurting those they falsely love by cheating and lying.

Patricia Moser-Stern and Barbara Moser knew there were plenty of successful women with advice to share when they decided to pen their book, 1 Piece of Advice. But the Markham cousins say the process of gathering almost 50 examples of remarkable women gave them even more inspiration. "There were these women across the globe that have achieved so many things ... stories so amazing, but we didn't even know," Patricia said. The stories of these women, and their one piece of advice for others, are now available in the cousins' recently-released book.
